God unknown, He alone Calls my heart to be His own. 2 Mortal pride and earthly glory, Sword and crown betray our trust; Though with care and toil we build them, Tow'r and temple fall to dust. But God's pow'r, Hour by hour, Is my temple and my tow'r. 3 Daily doth th'almighty Giver Bounteous gifts on us bestow; His desire our soul delighteth, Pleasure leads us where we go. Love doth stand At His hand; Joy doth wait on His command. 4 Still from earth to God eternal Sacrifice of praise be done, High above all praises praising For the gift of Christ, His Son. Christ doth call One and all: Ye who follow shall not fall. Languages: English Tune Title: MICHAEL

If Thou but Trust in God to Guide Thee

Author: G. C. Neumark, 1621-81; C. Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #205 (1996) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Epiphany 4 Lyrics: 1 If thou but trust in God to guide thee And hope in Him through all thy ways, He'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee, And bear thee through the evil days; Who trusts in God's unchanging love Builds on the Rock that naught can move. 2 What can these anxious cares avail thee, These never-ceasing moans and sighs? What can it help if thou bewail thee O'er each dark moment as it flies? Our cross and trials do but press The heavier for our bitterness. 3 Only be still, and wait His leisure In cheerful hope, with heart content To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure And all-discerning love have sent; Nor doubt our inmost wants are known To Him who chose us for His own. 4 He knows the time for joy, and truly Will send it when He sees it meet. When He has tried and purged thee duly, And finds thee free from all deceit, He comes to thee all unaware And makes thee own His loving care. 5 Nor think amid the heat of trial That God hath cast thee off unheard, That he whose hopes meet no denial Must surely be of God preferred; Time passes and much change doth bring And sets a bound to everything. 6 All are alike before the Highest; 'Tis easy to our God, we know, To raise thee up though low thou liest, To make the rich man poor and low; True wonders still by Him are wrought Who setteth up and brings to naught. 7 Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving, So do thine own part faithfully, And trust His Word, though undeserving, Thou yet shalt find it true for thee. God never yet forsook at need The soul that trusted Him indeed. Languages: English Tune Title: WER NUR DEN LIEBEN GOTT

Thy Way and All Thy Sorrows

Author: P. Gerhardt, 1607-76; A. T. Russell, 1806-74 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #208 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Epiphany 4 Lyrics: 1 Thy way and all thy sorrows, Give thou into His hand, His gracious care unfailing, Who doth the heav’ns command; Their course and path He giveth To clouds and air and wind; A way thy feet may follow, He too for thee will find. 2 On Him be Thy reliance, As thou would'st prosper well; To make thy work enduring Thy mind on His must dwell. God yieldeth naught to sorrow And self tormenting care; Naught, naught with him availeth; No power save that of pray'r. 3 Thy truth and grace, O Father, Behold and surely know, Both what is good and evil, For mortal man below: And whatso'e'er Thou choosest Thou dost, great God, fulfill, And into being bringest Whate'er is in Thy will. 4 Thy way is ever open; Thou dost on naught depend; Thine act is only blessing, Thy path light without end. Thy work can no man hinder; Thy purpose none can stay, Since Thou to bless Thy children Through all dost make a way. 5 In vain the pow'rs of darkness Thy will, O God, oppose; High over all undoubting, Thy pleasure onward goes. Whate'er Thy will resolveth, Whate'er Thou dost intend, Its destined work performeth True to its aim and end. 6 Then hope, my feeble spirit, And be thou undismayed; God helps in ev'ry trial, And makes thee unafraid. Await God's time with pleasure, Then shall thine eyes behold The sun of joy and gladness His brightest beams unfold. 7 Arise, arise! thy sadness, Thy cares send far away; Away each thought afflicting That on the heart doth prey. Not in thy hands the guidance Of all events doth dwell; God on His throne o'erruleth, He guideth all things well. 8 Leave all to His direction; In wisdom He doth reign; Thy wonder far exceeding, He will His course maintain; So He as Him beseemeth, With wonder-working skill, Shall put away the sorrows That now thy spirit fill. 9 Awhile His consolation He will to thee deny, And seem as though in spirit He far from thee would fly; Awhile distress and anguish Shall compass thee around, Nor to thy supplication An answ'ring voice be found. 10 But if thou ne'er forsake Him, Thou shalt deliv'rance find; Behold all unexpected, He will thy soul unbind. He from thy heavy burden Will soon thy heart set free; Yea, from that weight no evil Hath yet befallen thee. 11 Thou child of truth, how blessed! A conqu'ror soon shalt be, With songs of glad thanksgiving A crown awaiteth thee. To thee the palm triumphal By god's own hand is giv'n, Thine, to His name who saved thee, To sing the songs of heav'n. 12 Give, Lord, this consummation To all our hearts’ distress, Our hands, our feet, O strengthen, In death our spirits bless. Thy truth and Thy protection For evermore we pray; With these in heav’nly glory Shall end our certain way. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: BEFIEHL DU DEINE WEGE

Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #209 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Epiphany 4 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high. Hide me, O my Savior, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide. Oh, receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee. Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find. Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name; I am all unrighteousness, False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin. Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity.
